Here, we show that the Shigella effector macrophages and escape from the macrophages’ phago- somes into the cytoplasm, where they multiply and induce IpaB, when delivered into epithelial cells, causes rapid cell death (Sansonetti, 2004; Ogawa and Sasakawa, cell-cycle arrest by targeting Mad2L2, an ana- 2006).

After a bacterium is that APC undergoes unscheduled activation surrounded by the membrane vacuole of an epithelial due to IpaB interaction with the APC inhibitor cell, it disrupts the vacuolar membrane and escapes into Mad2L2.

One of these effectors, IpaB, plays multiple roles in promoting Shigella infection. The IpaB INTRODUCTION protein delivered into macrophages activates Caspase-1 and induces cell death (Hilbi et al., 1998, Chen et al., Shigella are highly adapted human pathogens that cause 1996; Zychlinsky et al., 1992). IpaB also interacts with bacillary dysentery, a disease that provokes severely CD44 on the epithelial cell membrane and stimulates

In addition, impairing the intestinal The IpaB/Mad2L2 Interaction Activates APCCdh1 epithelial integrity, which also occurs as a consequence of at G2/M Phase cell-cycle progression inhibition (Nougayrede et al., 2005; Mad2L2 was previously reported to be a Mad2-related Oswald et al., 2005), might further contribute to bacterial protein capable of binding APCCdh1 and inhibiting entry from the basolateral surface of epithelial cells, also APCCdh1 activation, though the precise role of Mad2L2 promoting bacterial colonization.
